Company offsites bring teams together for fun and facetime 

A company offsite is an in-person get-together at a location in your city - say, a hotel, event center, spa or even the office - that focuses on team building and professional development. Your team will meet at the offsite location at the specified time and participate in skills workshops and team activities. A corporate offsite can be a daylong affair that includes a continental or sit-down breakfast and a catered lunch, or it can be an afternoon gathering with snacks.

The purpose of an offsite depends on your organizational goals. A corporate offsite can focus on team-building to help strengthen work relationships and collaboration skills, or they can focus on skills development, such as learning a new computer system or leadership soft skills. A wellness offsite may include meditation workshops, stress-reduction classes and self-care, while an offsite brainstorming or planning event provides space and time to focus in-depth on a single issue.

Offsite corporate events show your employees that you’re happy to invest in their personal and professional development - and that goes a long way toward improving employee morale, engagement and satisfaction. Offsites bring remote or hybrid workers together in person to tighten work bonds, improve soft or hard skills, and energize your workforce. Regular, recurring offsites are a great selling point for attracting new talent, too.

The best company offsites are well-planned, engaging and rejuvenating. They’re part celebration, part skills development and part team bonding. Your event should have a theme and include high-energy, team-building activities as well as quieter learning workshops and breakout sessions. Great food is an important part of your corporate offsite - combine a catered, sit-down meal with an awards ceremony, special entertainment or a guest speaker. Finally, don’t forget the company swag or gift boxes - sending your employees away with a token of time well-spent is icing on the cake!
